“Raven’s Fire” is a ghost story that involves a 30-year-old
secret that tears apart Joe’s and Carol’s marriage and sends Joe into his
beloved woods to recuperate, only to discover that they’re filled with evil
spirits.
When a person dies, an ancient spirit takes his soul to the
next life. This spirit is Pauguck, the Retriever of Souls, and he has a
long-standing feud with Raven, a mischievous spirit who blinds the spirits of
the dead.
So when two men – including Joe – are on a river trip in the
woods, Pauguck does not think his services will be needed, but Raven is intent
on ending both men’s lives.
Filled with ancient spirits and deadly secrets, “Raven’s
Fire” is sure to keep your heart racing, for no one is safe from the terror of
the river.
John Gubbins lives with his wife, Carol, alongside the
Escanaba River in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He spends his free time with
Carol and his son, Alex, fishing, camping, and reading poetry. Alex is a
published poet, attends and teaches in the MFA program at Northern Michigan
University, and lives nearby in Marquette, Michigan.
Mr. Gubbins’ first novel, “Profound River,” a historical
novel set in Fifteenth Century Britain, has been acclaimed for its lyrical
writing, scholarship, and originality.
